Alioto Gets There
Niveau 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Markkos Ladev opened 30,000 in early position and both Piero Alioto and Alejandro Lococo came along in the blinds.
The dealer fanned a flop of J♠6♦5♠, and the action checked to Ladev who continued for 35,000. Alioto check-raised all in for 225,000, forcing Lococo to quickly fold and Ladev snap-called.
Piero Alioto: K♠10♠ 
Markkos Ladev: A♠J♦
Alioto flopped a flush draw and the 9♥ turn gave him a straight draw as well. The 4♠ river completed his flush and he raked in the double.
